Manchester United and City fans urged to 'trash their Carlos Tevez shirt'
Fans of Manchester United and City will be given the chance to banish the memory of Carlos Tevez (even if it is only from their respective wardrobes), by binning their No.32 replica jerseys in exchange for sparkly new ones.

sounds good ! :p
 
The Sun's exclusive for today says that no one on the bench, and none of the assistants heard Tevez refuse to play, that Mancini tried to talk to him in italian despite Tevez not speaking Italian, that Tevez had (having already actually warmed up) got up to warm up when Mancini told him he wasn't going to play and that all the statements back Tevez essentially so the club won't be charging Tevez with trying any kind of strike action or refusal to play.

I will laugh my ass off if true, because mostly the way everyone who can't stand City's money decided to jump on the "Tevez is evil" bandwagon, and all the City fans who in a split second turned their backs on their best player in the past two years.

Considering Mancini had a go at three separate players, upset a bunch of people, then decided to blame it all on Tevez I always found the idea that it was Tevez's fault odd to say the least.

We'll see if its true, I can't remember what I said at the time, just that jumping to conclusions because a big ego'd manager makes a few claims is daft, that Tevez hadn't(if guilty) done anything loads of other players haven't done and that the whole over reaction and sudden hatred of Tevez was mental, if he didn't even do it, its just funnier and more ridiculous.


For the record, the shirt exchange is funny, but would be funnier if it was for a crap player, or someone who had actually done something vile, your Diouf's, Barton's but there you go.

Pretty sure I got a Tevez shirt one upon a time...
 
To be honest I reckon Mancini is just a hot headed pratt, Dzeko reacted to being taken off and Mancini got angry at him, then angry at BOTH the players he tried to bring on, then angry at all his staff, then backed himself into a corner and is still backing himself into a BS story it would seem.

After the "investigation" is done, and Mancini has tried to fine up 6 weeks wages instead of 2, and ban him from the club, and it turns out he was talking out his arse the whole time(if thats the case) isn't it more likely that he'll lose the dressing room than Tevez will be seen as the bad guy in the team?

How will players react to a guy who might randomly get angry, blame them for everything and fine them huge wages while trying to force them out the club, you wouldn't think very well.
 
It might have been true that he didn't refuse to play but he did refuse to do what the manager said (warm up). Simple. He asked him to go warm up again and Tevez said no, therefore that is a breach of contract? as he is refusing to take orders from someone above him?

If Tevez comes back into 1st team training etc it will not impact the rest of the squad anyway, the same squad that was supposed to implode without him this season.

The media like to think that it will but lets be honest they know hardly anything apart from what Kia is telling them.



Anyway nice incentive from BetFair. Wont see many 11-12 City shirts thrown though unless some people were actually stupid enough to buy one with Tevez on the back after everything that happened last year.

I would say that more a case of he was already warmed up and he just disputed a reasonable request, which would probably just get him a written warning anywhere else.
 
Theres actually nothing to say he refused to go back and warm up again, but he had however warmed up already and was apparently ready to go on, again Biz I'll point out, Tevez wasn't the FIRST or the only person Mancini got angry with, and Mancini has repeatedly stated Tevez refused to GO ON, not that he refused to warm up, and pretty much everyone at the club except Mancini is saying this simply isn't true.

So why would you focus on the possibility that he refused to warm up for a second time, rather than the (from all current info) lies Mancini is telling?

I think you'll find it hard for anyone to agree that he breeched his contract in refusing to warm up when.... he did warm up and, well, theres nothing much more to that is there. He refused to do something.... except, he had done it already and obviously didn't refuse when asked to warm up the first time?

Also, I love this "they'll implode without him" attitude of City fans, or any fans in other situations.

Months after the fact, make a bold claim that everyone was wrong, about something they never said. Who said City, the most expensively assembled team ever, with multiple strikers, who added a BETTER striker in the summer and generally only start one upfront anyway would implode without Tevez.

I certainly never did, and most people with any brains wouldn't have suggested it. Harder maybe without Tevez, possibly, implode? Baloteli, Aguero, Dzeko, Tevez, really fighting over one or two spots depending on the game, poor city.
 
So no one at City can back up Mancini's claims that Tevez refused to go on so instead City are charging him with refusing to warm up when asked... Could this then just be a case of Mancini trying all means to just get him out of the club which has backfired? Or publicly are City just changing their stance to avoid all number of leagal ramifications?

I just think the whole thing is a joke. By pursuing this and spending millions only to suspend their best player just makes the club look like fools.

Well tbh they are a bunch of big fools lol...ive never disliked a team as much as City...hell even Chelsea i disliked but not as much as City.

I was in absolute stitches when SSN ran the story that Tevez wasnt being charged for failing to play and it seems like Mancini tried to villify Tevez because he was losing to Bayern...what an utter arse really.

Since that incident ive felt sorry for Tevez, i really did feel that he was made out to be the fall guy when quite clearly it wasnt....losing to Bayern incensed Mancini and he took it out on Tevez.

Tbh im in agreement with DM on this one....poor showing by City and Mancini.

I hope Utd thump them over the weekend....
 
Tevez or Hargreaves to come on and score the winner would be lulzville

Cant believe this is still going on, sort it out or they will pay for it in team morale.
 
Getting someone to replace the kit with your want-away heathen's name on it? Pah, that's just not trying hard enough.
